Our day started with a lovely morning.
Morning sky at 7:12am
My yellow hibiscus wishes you "Good morning".
The early birds say "Thank you" for this fig.
Hubby was supposed to buy the above item to stock up for porridge.
But he came back with this pickled mustard green instead.
He didn't buy 1 but he bought 2.
So instead of eating it with porridge, I sliced the mustard green and mixed it with minced pork and some chili padi. Then I steamed it to eat with steamed rice.
Sauteed napa cabbage with carrot, garlic and salt.
I have been passing by this way but somehow never really noticed this phone booth. One morning we walked by this way to go to our regular coffee shop. Only then did I noticed that one of them has a public phone still intact which has not been destroyed. So far, this is the 2nd public phone I saw and shared in my posts.
"Why are you angry?" the Lord asked him.
"Why is your face so dark with rage?
It can be bright with joy if you will do what you should!
But if you refuse to obey, watch out.
Sin is waiting to attack you, longing to destroy you.
But you can conquer it!"
(Genesis 4:6-7, The Living Bible-TLB)

Thank you, Iris.
DeleteThe hibiscus looks so beautiful! Love mustard green!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteI did cook something like this before - steamed minced pork but with canned pickled lettuce with a bit of soy sauce so it is a shade darker.
ReplyDeleteYes, very nice too with pickled lettuce.
DeleteThe hibiscus 🌺 is pretty! We call it "gumamela" 🌺 in the Philippines 😁!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Shirley.
DeleteThe hibiscus is beautiful and it looks like you made good use of your husband's mistake buy.
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a wonderful day.
DeleteWho knew how ancient pay phones would eventually look. :-)
ReplyDeleteSadly, these pay phones have been replaced by our hand phones much to our convenience.
DeleteEse bonito y despajado amanecer, es presagio de un espléndido y soleado día.
ReplyDeleteNo sabía absolutamente nada de que existían hojas de mostaza, por lo que un día me gustaría probarlas, por lo que voy a intentar conseguirlas.
En Sevilla hace ya muchos años que las cabinas de teléfono desaparecieron, y no por vandalismo, sino por que ya nadie las usaban y dejaron de ser rentables.
Muy bonita entrada, amiga Nancy.
Y a disfrutar de esos días soleados.
Thank you, Manuel. Have a great day.
Delete...Nancy, you found a relic of days gone by. I find a payphone now and then. Thanks for sharing and take care.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tom.
DeleteWhat a beautiful hibiscus! Its color amazing. Looks so cute.
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a beautiful day.
DeleteGreat flower❤
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kinga.
DeleteI grew up eating mustard greens. Mom always grew them in the garden. Delicious.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day, Nancy. ♥
I like fresh mustard greens too.
DeleteIt's amazing to even see phone like this today. The birds must have really enjoyed the fig. I bet they'll be coming back to finish it later.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day Nancy.
Cruisin Paul
Yes, Paul. I left the fig for the birds to finish and they did.
DeleteSuch different food to what I am use to
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jo-Anne.
DeleteNancy, around here we call hibiscus china rose
ReplyDeleteThank you, Norma. I like the name China rose.
DeleteYour hibiscus is beautiful, and i hope you get at least as many figs as the birds do.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the wrong item purchased turns out to be a bonus.
Thank you, Mimi. The figs I forget to wrap go to the birds.
DeleteQuite a pretty hibiscus.
ReplyDeleteThank you, William.
DeleteAhhh, the birds loved the figs in my back yard when we lived in California! I was always so bummed to see when they would feast on the ripe ones, haha! - http://www.domesticgeekgirl.com
ReplyDeleteI am amazed that the birds know when the fig is ripe for eating.
DeleteOoo this sounds really good!! And how cool to find these still standing phone booths!

Thank you, Allie.
DeleteSteamed Minced Meat With Pickled Mustard Green sounds very flavourful. How does pickled mustard green taste like - spicy ? Salty? Sour?
ReplyDeleteSomething like salted vegetable (hum choy) but sweeter.
DeleteM e gusto la flor te mando un beso
ReplyDeleteThank you, JP.
DeleteThank you, Francisco.
ReplyDeleteLovely hibiscus. I hope I can find some in the Spring to plant. Always delightful dishes from you to all of us. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anne.
DeleteEl hibisco está muy bonito. Besos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa.
DeleteIf you add it to meat, it would take even longer to finish the 2 cans!
ReplyDeleteYes, I know but it is better than eating it with porridge. Lol!
